Jazz and Blues infused Folk Funk      
 


“I have been and remain involved in the Television Entertainment Industry in Canada for over forty years, and believe I can discern outstanding talent when I see and hear it. Such is the basis for my support for this particular group of musicians...The Tell Mama Kick Ass Jass band need to produce a professionally produced and engineered recording of their original work, so they can continue to expand their reach beyond the immediate Ottawa area, where they are already well known and much appreciated.”

— Bryn Matthews, Past President CJOH TV

“My name is Oskar Graf, I'm a founding member of the Blue Skies Music Festival and a Director of the Blue Skies Cultural Center...I became aware of Tell Mama about 3-4 years ago through their performances in various venues and community events, from fundraisers for "Hill FM" to the Perth Stewart Park Festival. From the original trio they have expanded to a sextet and it was in this configuration that Tell Mama played at Blue Skies this summer. The added keyboard and second sax fills out their sound and gives them a much larger presence that is much appreciated at main stage concerts.”

— Oskar Graf, Blue Skies Music Festival

“I believe that any funding that OAC directs toward Tell Mama will be money very well spent. First, these are no flakes: every band member was already a highly experienced and talented musician before Tell Mama ever existed. All have always been in music for the long-term, and have always been very dedicated. Second, this is a band that seriously works at self-development – in terms of music, performance, marketing and audience relations. I’ve had real pleasure watching and hearing their musical development over the past five years, and it has been satisfying to see that this development has not gone un-noticed by their ever-expanding fan base in Eastern Ontario.”
